PFL Heavyweight Title Fight Set for Dubai as Nemkov Meets Bilostenniy
The Professional Fighters League (PFL) has announced its next heavyweight title fight, which will take place on November 14 at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai. Current champion Vadim Nemkov (20-2) will face No. 3-ranked Sergei Bilostenniy (15-4), both of whom have roots in Team Fedor and represent Russia's storied heavyweight tradition.
Nemkov, a protégé of MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko, is looking to make his next title defense against Bilostenniy. The event will be held at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, which has hosted several high-profile PFL events in the past.
PFL CEO John Martin expressed excitement for the matchup, stating that it's 'exactly the kind of world-class championship matchup we want to bring to fans in Dubai.' Tickets for the event are now available through pre-sale, with general sale tickets set to go on September 8.
